Katy and Benz keep a wonderful home and are extremely welcoming and excellent hosts.

This room is very large and self-contained, with its own bathroom and huge walk-in closet all within, providing the privacy of a hotel room. And, being on the top floor of their house, it has tons of sunlight and nice views.

The Ari neighborhood is a great base in Bangkok, where I felt I got a much better sense of actually living in the city than other places I stayed. The apartment is a quick walk to two nearby BTS stations, many great restaurants, etc.

Finally, their menagerie of animals added wonderfully to the place. :) (And if that sounds potentially not to your taste: 1. they don't tend to come all the way upstairs, and even if they did would be shut out of the room by default, and 2. I have literally never seen a multi-cat house that was so clean and fresh even in the areas where they do live. In my mind, it's purely a plus for anyone but the most severely allergic.)
